Tim240z Posted May 20, 2002 Share Posted May 20, 2002 Last I heard you car was complete (or at least 99.9%). So where are the pictures Man? Gotta have something more complete than the painted shell in your signature?! Not trying to keep your Z a secret from the rest of us are you?

Guest Anonymous Posted May 21, 2002 Share Posted May 21, 2002 Yeah I suspect it went something like this at nissan during they're design: "Wow, it looks great." "Yeah it does, hey wait, somethings missing" "Oh crap, Hey Fuji, WTF, where are the side markers?" "Umm, oh yeah, I knew I forgot something.." "Oh well, no matter, see what we can order cheaply" Sometime later, "Ok, just got off the phone with a camp trailer manufacturer, we have a half million of them on the way and for only a buck a piece." "Very good Fujisan" deep bow. Well probably something like that, seriously though, they are pretty ugly, I'd like to french some in flush when I get to the point, or at least something more rounded and smoother and not a diesel truck marker light look the stock ones have.

pparaska Posted May 21, 2002 Share Posted May 21, 2002 Tim, you bumm! Just kidding. I got it very close to finished thrashing to go to MSA, but Life happened at home (lots of honey-do's) since then so I've spent maybe an hour since before the MSA event working on it. Yes, that's KILLING ME! As soon as I get it done, I will snap some digital pics and update my web site and signature! One of the ideas I got from the MSA show was to use 280ZX side marker lights. One of our nice members here is sending me a set, so I hope to put them on before I "debut" it on the web, etc. Man, I hate those 240Z side marker lights! Talk about a styling screw up! I'm having some electrical problems and I need to build/put a smaller carb on the motor as well, so it may be a few weeks, the way things are going.

Guest Thurem Posted May 21, 2002 Share Posted May 21, 2002 In the bike shop where I work we have some really nice looking flushmount turnsignals for bikes, They might work on a Z. I think they are from Lockhart Phillips. They come in clear, amber, dark and in two sizes. Thure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zfan Posted May 21, 2002 Share Posted May 21, 2002 WOW!! Pete might actually finish the Z marathon project, no way. Then what? Actually I've been looking forward to seeing the finished product for sometime(not as long as Pete) sorry! Looks like it's going to be a real jaw dropper! Lots of pictures when she finished..oh wait are they ever finished? Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pparaska Posted May 22, 2002 Share Posted May 22, 2002 Finished? Never. Driveable (made up a word!) Soon? Yes, lots of pictures - when the interior is done and I have it cleaned up. BTW, if anyone lives near me and would like to do a QUALITY photo shoot, I'd appreciate it with beer, wine, food, etc. My photography skills are, well, pretty sorry!
